November Skyline…

Just off Stage Fort Park.

The Crane Estate held an Art Show on the grounds over the weekend and admittance was free. I hadn’t been there in a while so I took a ride over. The art work was fantastic, as I expected but it was the grounds I was more interested in. I am a Trustees member and am often humbled by the breadth and stretch of the various properties and their outstanding qualities. Such was the case (again) for the Crane Estate.

I am very grateful for the support my campaign has been receiving and for the opportunity to continue serving Gloucester residents.  Thank you Joey Ciamitaro and the entire crew at Good Morning Gloucester for the chance to share my campaign statement and for all that you do each and every day to support causes that are important to our community.  

My name is Jeff Worthley. I’m from Gloucester–and I’m for Gloucester.

I’m 46 years old, a father of two Gloucester students-my daughter-a 6th grader at O’Maley and my son-a freshman at Gloucester High School.  I had the opportunity to serve on the City Council when I was 24 years old and again when I was 26.  I got married, had children and started my own financial services practice that has been a success helping people with their planning needs consistently for 14 years.  2 years ago I decided to return to public service and I ran for and won an at large City Council seat.

I’ve served successfully on the Budget & Finance Committee.  My kids and I have organized multiple positive civic events over the last couple of years and we continue to inspire, and be inspired by volunteers.

I worked at the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce for four years, starting the Lobster Trap Tree, the downtown Window Box Program and the Gloucester Gift Certificate keeping $700,000 in our local economy.

I’m running for another two year term on the City Council because I make a positive difference for Gloucester residents.  Listening is the main ingredient in public service and I’m known for doing that well.  And, in addition to listening to residents when they are advocating for a particular position I have the courage to trust my judgment that the interests of the other 29,000 residents are also taken into consideration.  

We have a LOT of work to do to create more housing that is affordable for Gloucester residents.  We have to draw more employers here so that we can increase the choices of jobs for Gloucester residents.  And we need to remember that there are an endless amount of good things worth preserving in Gloucester.  

I ask for one of your four votes in today’s election. There are a lot of good candidates running. I’m first on the ballot and hope voters will choose me so I can continue to work with the other candidates and each of the Ward Councilors to make Gloucester better.

Thank you.

Political Statement from Mary Ellen Rose, candidate for Mayor

Submitted to Good Morning Gloucester

Running for the office of mayor was not a decision I made easily. I based my reasoning on the fact that I knew I had the knowledge, experience, and capability to do a better job than the administration that I was paying taxes to support. I want to be Gloucester’s Mayor because I believe in our community and I want to support our resident taxpayers with strong, effective leadership.

If you haven’t had a chance to learn much about me, there are several places you can go to read more. I have posted several documents on https://www.rose4mayor.com/news which will provide detailed information about everything from my work experiences and position papers about issues, to my thoughts and answers to questions that have arisen throughout this campaign. In https://www.rose4mayor.com/testimonials you will hear from people I have worked with, for, or among over much of my career. If you want to learn about some of my personal history, https://www.rose4mayor.com/about provides some insight. I have also posted a number of videos on both my campaign (Rose4Mayor) and personal Facebook pages and I hope you have a chance to see them. 

One of the things I believe in is promoting our ability to make a living in ways that build both our community culture and our individual pride in Gloucester. This city has, for centuries, survived as a middle-class community built on a hard-working fishing industry ethos. In addition to our proud fishing heritage, our family-built Rose Marine and other businesses to serve the waterfront and the general population of hard workers. I saw first-hand how tenacity and grit led to prosperity not only in our family businesses, but also in the businesses owned by close friends. This focused, hard-working, service-oriented ethic was instilled in my very core and has served as the basis for the values upon which I have built my life.

When it comes to economic prosperity, success can often depend upon a city government that is accountable, transparent, service-oriented, and business-friendly. By partnering with the community, my administration will ensure both accountability and transparency rather than continue a system that closes ranks and cloaks its mistakes or intentions beneath the velvet curtain of politics. I believe in openness – open door policies, open meetings, open communication, and managing the city with an open heart to our community members

Another important belief I hold is in regard to our city’s changing population. Gloucester has refreshed its point of view from new arrivals to our seaport. From the earliest settlers, to the Portuguese, Italians, Swedes, Finns, and other groups from around the world, each wave of immigrants came here to work and make a better life for themselves and their families. Most recently, our Brazilian friends have picked up that tradition and breathed new life into our community like those who came before them. I salute those residents toiling to build businesses, raise close-knit families, and getting involved in the community to ensure a more culturally and economically rich city. We welcome those who bring their work ethic and love of community to our city. I believe in this type of growth for Gloucester and I want to cultivate it to the benefit of our entire population.

Lastly, whether you have made Gloucester your home in the past year or hailed from ancestors across the past 400 years, if you have recently felt squeezed out, I hear you and I want to solve this challenge together. I want to work in a collaborative environment where all of the stakeholders have a seat at the table to address issues. Where the wildest ideas have room to breathe and float among realistic or innovative suggestions. Where every voice is heard and considered within a thoughtful, open forum.  At the end of the day, the only squeeze I want you to feel is the hug of a welcoming and kind embrace that says ”You are one with our community and we want you to stay here and thrive, what can we do to help make that happen?”.

Please vote for Mary Ellen Rose as Mayor on November 7^th. Thank you!

I am posting this on behalf of Gloucester Giving Elves .
We are in our fourth year of helping those in community at holiday season who are less fortunate .
We deal w specific group of students at Gloucester High School .
This year we are asking members of community to donate gift cards in the amount of 10.00 each to a local coffee, pizza or sub or shake shop .
By giving these students a gift card to a local spot they are able to share a meal with their peers something many take for granted but something these students don’t have the opportunity to do because of finances .

If you would like to donate monetarily I have posed the Venmo acct in post

Please comment of message me privately if you choose to help

Thank you !!
